Abilities

Yao Yao's skills allow her to heal characters while still dealing damage based on the current situation on the battlefield. Also in the reserve of the spearwoman there are quite useful ive talents and constellations that can help the team both in the open world and during the battle.

Basic skills (active skills)

• Spinning Spear (Normal, Charged, Fall Attack)

Performs up to 4 quick javelins during a normal attack.

Charged Strike: Charges forward at the cost of stamina. Falling Strike: A rush to the ground with area damage upon landing.

• Celestial Cluster of Radish (Elemental Skill)

Calls to his aid the invention of the Adept - Rushing Yuegui. When pressed quickly, it immediately throws it forward, while holding the skill, it can choose the direction of the throw.

Rushing Yuegui:

• Periodically throws a white jade radish that explodes after hitting enemies or heroes, and then deals Dendro damage in a certain area and restores health to characters in the same area depending on Yao Yao's maximum HP.
• If the radish does not hit enemies or heroes, it remains in place and exists on the battlefield until it is touched by an enemy/character or 5 seconds have ed.

Targets for White Jade Radish are chosen based on the situation:

• If nearby allies have more than 70% HP, the enemy becomes the target.
• If allies have less than 70% HP, the target is the character with the least amount of health.
• If there are no enemies nearby, and the HP of all characters is greater than 70%, the roll is still made against the heroes.

At the same time, no more than 2 Yueguev can be present on the field.

Skill cooldown time: 15 seconds.

• Descent of the moon jasper (explosion of the elements)

Releases Yuegui's full power, dealing damage to nearby enemies and granting a partially invincible state. Legacy Adepts:

• White Jade Radish is modded to either deal damage or heal.
• When the radish explodes, deal damage to Dendro and restore even more HP to all allies nearby.
• Summons Leaping Yuegui at some intervals until their number reaches 3. The principle of their operation is the same as that of Throwing Yuegui elemental skill.
• At this point, Yao Yao's movement speed is increased by 15%, and Dendro's resistance is increased by 50%.

If Yao Yao leaves the battlefield while Adept Legacy is active, the effect break off, and all Leaping Yuegui will disappear.

Adept Legacy Status Duration: 5 seconds. Cooldown time: 20 seconds. Energy consumption: 80 units.

The order of leveling talents

In any position, Yao Yao's abilities are a key source of damage, buffs, and healing. The boost priority is as follows:

• Healer: elemental skill > elemental explosion > normal attack.
• Sap-dd reactor: elemental explosion > elemental skill > normal attack.

Normal attacks in both cases can either not be improved at all, or left at level 6.

Constellations

The best constellations Yao Yao - С1, С2 и С6:

• The first constellation is one of the most useful in of , as it gives a bonus to Dendro damage and restores stamina points to active characters in the explosion zone of the White Jade Radish.
• The second constellation allows you to solve the problem with Yao Yao's expensive ult and restore energy right during the action of this skill.
• The sixth increases Yao Yao's potential as a healer, and makes it possible to deal some additional area of ​​effect damage depending on the strength of the attack.

Advantages and disadvantages

The Apprentice Adept is a character and has the following benefits:

• Universal -healer who will go to any Dendro Squad to maintain a high HP level of the active character. It is especially effective for the team through Budding, Blooming and Vegetation, since in this case the heroes also take damage from the explosion of the cores.
• The healing bonus depends only on HP, which increases when Yao Yao ascends. This makes it much easier to pick up equipment if the spearwoman is used exclusively as a healer.
• Can take a sup-dd stance thanks to elemental skill throwing and jumping Yuegui and elemental explosion mechanics. They not only additionally heal allies, but also cause periodic damage to enemies. For example, Yuegui Throwers work outside the battlefield to status imposition, and Jumpers are more suitable for reaction call.
• During her ult, gains a 15% movement speed bonus and increases her resistance to Dendro.
• Becomes Dendro buffer with 1st constellation. C1 gives Dendro a 15% damage bonus and restores 15 stamina to party in the area of ​​effect of the White Jade Radish explosion.
• When Yao Yao is on the team, characters no longer scare away crabs and so on. The rest of the animals are presented in the archive (Creatures > Fauna > Other).

Disadvantages:

• The elemental explosion effect of Adept Legacy is broken if Yao Yao leaves the battlefield. Thus, she will either have to take time from the main damage dealer or use the skill less frequently. Not critical for the sup-dd role.
• Ult costs 80 units of energy, for which you need to collect enough energy recovery in stats to activate the skill as needed.
• It is difficult to find stats for dealing damage and healing, since healing depends on HP, and skill damage depends on attack power.
• There is no instant healing for the entire squad, as the heal is only tied to the area of ​​effect of the explosion of the White Jade Radish.
• The narrow focus of the character, only units through Dendro reactions (but if used as a healer, then you can put it in any squad).

Best builds for Yao Yao in Genshin Impact

Yao Yao is a Dendro with an emphasis on healing the active character during combat. In addition, the mechanics of her skills involve dealing damage in order to trigger reactions. That is, it can also play the role of Dendro reactor or applicator.

Recommended characteristic values

When creating a Yao Yao build, you can focus on both healing and damage (on the 6th constellation). Alternatively, there is an option to make a mixed build, but in this case it becomes difficult to balance all the necessary stats.

Healer

In the position of Yao Yao, you need to keep the main damage dealer at a high level, as well as to strengthen it as much as possible before leaving the battlefield. As her healing percentage increases from HP, it is important to focus on this indicator. Other stats (depending on the situation): mastery of the elements, bonus treatment.

Optimal stat values:

• HP (health): about 35.000-40.000 HP.
• Energy recovery: from 200%.
• Elemental Mastery: 250 units. Strong emphasis on this stat in the position of a healer is not necessary, but in Dendro units it is in any case not superfluous.

Sap-dd reactor

In this build, Yao Yao concentrates on calling Dendro reactions. Thus, the main characteristic becomes mastery of the elements. It also requires a lot of energy recovery. For sup-dd, the priority of HE increases, since it is in the ult that the spearwoman summons Leaping Yuegui (including during sprinting, dashing and jumping) and gains 15% movement speed. Other stats (according to the situation): critical damage, crit chance, still power, HP.

Optimal stat values:

• Elemental Mastery: 450-500 units.
• Energy recovery: from 220% and above.
• Attack power: from 1500 units and above. This stat affects skill damage, which is important for dealing your own damage.
• Chance of crit and crit. damage: ratio 1:2 (50 ksh and 100 ku). Crits play a role only in the Stimulation reaction (Electro + Dendro), but for the flexibility of the assembly, it is desirable to observe at least 1:2.

If you want Yao Yao to not only close reactions, but also heal, you should collect at least 25.000 HP.

Best weapon

Yao Yao's weapons should be selected based on her role:

• A healer needs the following stats and bonuses: HP, squad buffs, energy regeneration/elemental mastery.
• To create reactions: elemental mastery, energy recovery, elemental damage, attack power (for dealing damage from skills), crits (for the Growth reaction).

Healer

To the squad and the main damage dealer, it is recommended to use the following spears:

Sap-dd reactor

The following weapons are suitable for creating powerful reactions:

Best Artifacts

Artifacts on Yao Yao must match the purpose she fulfills in the team.

Artifacts for Yao Yao as a healer 

For example, for a heal or a full , sets with bonuses of healing, HP and buffs for the squad are suitable.

Artifacts for Sap-DD Yao Yao

For the sup-dd role, it is recommended to consider sets that give elemental mastery or elemental damage bonus.

Squad Composition

Basically, Yao Yao is used in slots for Dendro units that need healing, resonance, or trigger reactions. Characters that interact effectively with the heroine:

Group examples

Units of Yao Yao, which can be formed based on the above characters:

How to play Yao Yao

Yao Yao is a Dendro that can perform several functions at once: heal, deal damage out of the battlefield, distribute a status or close a reaction. In general, in its construction, emphasis can be placed on both full (healer)And by sup-dd (reactor). At the same time, not only the assembly is different, but also the style of the game, since the mechanics of the same elemental explosion does not allow the heroine to leave the battlefield. Consider the gameplay on the example of two basic builds of Yao Yao.

Full Rotation (Healer)

In this case, the student of the Adepts is present at the minimum in the arena, playing only the role of a healer or a buffer in the presence of certain constellations, artifacts or weapons. It is worth noting that in this build, the heroine performs best in a team with one main damage dealer and s, and not in “revolvers” (squads with several damage dealers), since she only heals one active character.

Rotation as follows:

1. Activate the elemental skill on Yao Yao, targeting the nearest enemy. Thus, the "Throwing Yuegui" appears, throwing "White Jade Radish" at the enemies, which then explode.
2. We switch to the main dd, and while Yuegui exists, we attack for 10 seconds. If during this period HP reaches 70% (and below) or there are no enemies nearby, the hero will begin to heal after the explosion.
3. Repeat step 1-2 until Yao Yao's ult accumulates, then activate it and wait for the Yuegui to throw White Jade Radish.
4. Again we change to the main dd and, being in the area of ​​​​the explosion, we get increased treatment. At the same time, Dendro damage is also inflicted on enemies.

Rotation for sap-dd reactor

As sup-dd Yao, Yao no longer leaves the battlefield after activating an elemental explosion. Rotation to create reactions:

1. Use the pocket abilities of other s or sup-dds.
2. Switch to Yao Yao and activate the elemental skill towards the opponents.
3. We change to the main damage and attack the enemies for 10 seconds until Yuegui disappears.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 until Yao Yao builds up his ult. Before using it, we again use skills on other s so that there are always sources of Electr, Hydro or Pyro on the arena to trigger reactions.
5. Activate the Yao Yao elemental explosion and start running around the enemies, periodically pressing jump and dash to throw an additional Radish (ive talent "Star Placer").

Сonclusion

Yao Yao is a hero that combines several roles at once: healer, reactor (closes the reaction), applicator (imposes a status), sup-dd and even a buffer on C1. This is its strength, but at the same time complicates the assembly. For example, healing requires HP, and skill damage is affected by attack power. The explosion of the elements is extremely expensive, which means you need to restore energy (at the same time, you cannot leave the battlefield during the ult), and to create stronger reactions, the need for mastery of the elements is added to all this.

Thus, the character turned out to be versatile, which is both a plus in of flexibility and a minus in of selecting stats and equipment. However, if the squad just needs Dendro healer и applicator, Yao Yao will do a great job in this role without special conditions.
